Cause
Camera is not turned
on.
The camera is
processing a picture;
the ready light (near the
viewfinder) is blinking
red.
The card or internal
memory is full.
The Shutter button was
not pressed.
Something was
blocking the lens when
the picture was taken.
Your eye or the picture
was not centered
correctly in the
viewfinder or camera
screen.
The card was removed
or the battery expired
while the ready light
was blinking.
Solution
Turn on the camera
(page
6).
Wait until the ready light stops
blinking red before attempting
to take another picture.
Transfer pictures to the
computer
(page
61), delete
pictures from the camera
(page
37), switch storage
locations
(page
12), or insert a
card with available memory
(page

For best pictures, see

objects away from the lens when
